"I had to find a school for my son who had just been statemented. I did not know where to look and did not have the time to do the research. Penny researched
the schools thoroughly and
found one that I would never
have considered.
It is the perfect school for my son and he has settled in very happily and quickly.
I am very grateful to Penny for achieving what would have been an impossible job for me and for all her help and guidance
along the way." Mr D Williams

COLLEGE COURSE SEARCH
"My son has Special Needs and was unhappy on his college course. We did not know which way to turn. Penny did some research and found a college which offered the right support for my son. She was very pro-active in getting the wheels in motion straight away as the term had already begun.
Penny's service was second to none and she is continuing to give advice and support with my son's education. She has found a path forward for him and given me hope for the future. Penny provided us with a very personalised service that was both thorough and quick. I would recommend that anyone who is having trouble finding a course to suit their child's educational needs should contact Penny. I cannot thank her enough for the help she has given us."
